The Mystery of Pain

[Simona Weil]

I appear in the kitchen of the base of the Eternal Light. If anyone can help me, they can.

I recently learned about my brother and what happened to him. He is not dead but a prisoner in the demon world.

Hopefully someone here can see me and will offer to help him.

[Harry Bergstrom]

Harry turns and sees a girl who wasn't there three seconds ago. A dybbuk?! Best thing to do would be try and make contact, I suppose...

"Uhm... hello?"

(post to Simona)

[Surma]

"Your welcome, but most of the credit should go to Tensuo.. if it wasn't for him this wouldn't have happened."

Surma snapped his fingers and everything began to move.

[Rolf Wagner]

((I assume that was electric. If not, oh well.))

Wagner's mouth snaps open in a silent scream and he drops to the ground in a heap. Inside Wagner's head, the electronic implants spark and shutdown to prevent brain damage. Wagner is out cold.

["Zero" Americanski]

(Yes it was electric)
With practiced skill I catch Rolf as he goes down under the arms and teleport us to an unused apartment that we keep rented out in case we have any "visitors" that shouldn't know about the base. Carefully I lay him down on the bed and begin to probe his mind.

(OOC jsut so you know the effects of electric shock on the brain are comparable to being VERY drunk.)

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov thinks for a moment.
"Maybe a smaller fantasy setting. A group of heroes fights to save the world from some great sorcerer but when they go to the dark castle they find that they are the evil ones for their narrow minds and that every ogre along the way was actually a human put under the sorcerer's spell. After realizing that they are all as evil as the sorcerer themselves, they kill themselves at the foot of his castle. Their mission was a failure. However, their deaths break the spell, the ogres return to humans, and the humans raise up together to overthrow the sorcerer. I like it since it tells us not to rely on heroes or revolutionaries but that true liberation comes from mass action. It also abolishes the idea that there is a difference between good and evil. People are people, though at times they are misled by ideas that do not benefit society and fellow humans."

[Simona Weil]

"Hello, my name is Simona Weil. But that is not important. Someone I care for is in danger. I need your help."

I am pleased that this man can see me. Of course that comes as little surprise since he is religious and most religious people can.

[Zex]

"then i will thank tensuo." i open a carton of strawberries.
"i don't have anything to give you, but would you like a strawberry?"

[Harry Bergstrom]

"Uh--how can I help?" he asks, standing up and drinking some more coffee.

[Simona Weil]

"I don't honestly know. I could take you to Chaya, he is traveling with a friend of my brothers. Maybe if you join with them you could help. I think they are on their way to the League of the Godless."

[Rolf Wagner]

Wagner lays still, most of his more advanced brain functions unoperational. Motor skills, logical thought, thought in general are set to the off position with the enhancements offline. Only "lower" functions, brain stem and subconcuse mainly, are left in working order. Though Wagner is unable to understand or remember anything while he is out, his subconcuse mind is running random images and audio bits through his mind, something like a chaotic dream. It would likely be at least fifteen minutes before the enhancments rebooted and Wagner woke up.

[Harry Bergstrom]

"Chaya?" he asked, quirking a brow. "Isn't Chaya a girls name? Nevermind - that's not important. Ok, well I'll help in any way I can. Oh, sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet. Harold. Harold Bergstrom, at your service."

[Samuel]

Sam's jaw drops.
"And why am I the one who's supposed to write this?" He said, laughing. "Your twice as creative as me, Bass. I could probably write less than half the book you could. But, still, I think I could give it a whack." He said, looking like he was really thinking hard about it.
Of course, if he wrote something like that, he'd never let it see the light of day. And if he did, it would be under a fake name, of course. But, why set more people against the government that decided his livelihood?
Still, it would give him something to do. And, it could produce a little conflict for Red Infinity, which might bog some things down...
He mentally shook himself. He was too capitalist for his own good.
"Its definatly something to think on though." He said at length.

[Simona Weil]

I go to shake his hand but it passes right through him.

"Would you like me to teleport you to them. I don't want to see Raz at the moment. I am not sure why this is, but I feel uncomfortable meeting with her in my present state. But I could drop you off near where they are."

[Harry Bergstrom]

"Uhm... sure." he says, not knowing who Raz is, as he knew her as Linda. "Let's go... you can teleport?"
